Hello! My ignis key started being temperamental so assumed it was the battery. Used your video to see how to do it. The inside of my key is very ‘sticky’ and only the lock button really ‘clicks’. I’m worried about damaging it. What would you suggest? I’ve put back together and still only the lock button clicks, not the unlock button. Where should I take it to sort please? Thanks, Tracey 😊
Hi Tracey, sorry just seen this. Well this style of key just wears out I'm afraid. The switches delaminiate and stop clicking correctly, plus the rubbers wear and get mishaped. You need a local Auto Locksmith to see if they can repair or replace
I have an ignis 2002 bought with a remote key (1). It won’t open or close remotely though. I tried some procedures online to pair/match it without success(door sensor 3 times etc.). Does the ignis have something special that needs dealer attention? I’m from the Netherlands.
Hi, I would say the first thing you need to do is find out whether the key is sending out a signal. Your local key cutting shop should have a gadget that shows if the key is transmitting
The Car Key Man the thing is that the car’s locking mechanism doesn’t respond to the procedure. It doesn’t auto lock to announce it’s in ‘pairing’ mode. Most of the procedures I’ve found are either for different types of Suzuki’s or not the same year.. is there a specific ignis procedure that you might know of? And thanks for replying :)
Hi Sam. If both keys are faulty, then you will probably need a new key. We looked at fixing these, but the internal switches are poor quality and tricky to swap. Try and find a local Auto Locksmith to help you
I'm still in desperate need of the destructions for the ford focus fob case replacement, I've got a new case already but is there a chip I've got to dig out ? The key /spring mechanism doesn't work on either of my keys most of the time now, it's either jammed shut, or locked open... Do I just have to get violent with the old case and swap the main board over ? (and swap out the key itself)
The Car Key Man sorry for the delay getting the key to you, had some health issues and other crap going on this end, I'll get it to you asap if that's ok :-} many thanks :-)
the Calsonic-Kansei T61M0 module appears to be sealed, i.e. no clips as on the Omron module. I'm toying with the idea of prising it open, replacing the battery and then sealing with a weak glue like nail varnish & a gentle clamp. sounds reasonable? any known pitfalls with the CK module? cheers
Hi Nigel, well we see a lot of keys that are stuck back together with glue. It depends if you are keeping the car. If you need to change the key battery again, say in two years, you will have problems. Other than that, just go light on the glue
@@TheCarKeyMan yes certainly keeeping the Ignis (great little vehicle) and expect to change the key battery again so will go lightly. a couple of tiny drops of nail varnish where the clips should've been! Thanks for the helpful video.
@@TheCarKeyMan yes the worked fine. My mum bought the car 11 years ago... I teared the key apart and i saw that the Buttons itself broke in 2 pieces, when i put them back together they're fine for about a day, then they stop working again.
Hi Lorraine, there are a couple of basic problems with these keys. The buttons lose their shape and then don't press down on the switch underneath correctly. On top of this, the electronic switches are terribel, they fall apart and need to be replaced.
Thanks was really helpful. No longer have to keep putting my key in the car to lock and unlock :)
Glad it helped!
Thought the battery was dead but just took it apart n cleaned all the dust n it works fine again
Great stuff, glad it helped :)
Thanks so much for your reply. It’s still temperamental at the moment but will see if I can find somewhere local to see what they can do!
Best of luck!
Thank you from Germany 🙂
You're welcome Marita :)
Very helpful video. Thank you. Do you know if the screw is a M2 thread or the screw dimensions.
Hi Hugh, I'm not sure to be honest and I don't have an old case to hand to measure, sorry!
Thanks for this video very useful.
You're welcome Glynis, thanks for watching :)

Hi Colin, sorry did you ask this before ? There is a way to open them but we haven't made the video yet. What year is the Focus please?

Hi
Good Vid BUT no clips to open inner battery pod on my 2012.
the Calsonic-Kansei T61M0 module appears to be sealed, i.e. no clips as on the Omron module.
I'm toying with the idea of prising it open, replacing the battery and then sealing with a weak glue like nail varnish & a gentle clamp. sounds reasonable? any known pitfalls with the CK module? cheers

Hey! What can i do, if the buttons of this key don't work anymore?
Hi, did they used to work? Or have you bought the car with a dodgy key?
@@TheCarKeyMan yes the worked fine. My mum bought the car 11 years ago... I teared the key apart and i saw that the Buttons itself broke in 2 pieces, when i put them back together they're fine for about a day, then they stop working again.
I expect it needs a couple of new switches. How many keys do you have ?
@@TheCarKeyMan we have 2 keys but the second one has no buttons at all
Hi, ok, are you in the UK?
After battery replacing stop working hazard light when lock door? why?
Hello Nauris, did it work before you replaced the battery?
@@TheCarKeyMan Yes it work. But I solwed problem, unplug car battery. I mean reset system and now all work :)
Mine still won't work
